Teachers, Join Us Monday !

Join us Monday at the Historical Society of Pennsylvania for the NHD Philly Kick-Off from 4:30-7:00 p.m.! Learn about the National History Day program, how to introduce it into your classroom, the NHD resources available in Philadelphia, and be inspired by student projects from last year. Admission is free and a reception follows the program.. Act 48 credit also is available.

Each year, more than half a million students nationwide participate in National History Day, a unique program in which students choose a topic related to the annual theme, conduct primary and secondary research, and present their findings.

At HSP we provide many ways to help you and your students participate in NHD. We list links to topics that can be researched in our facility, offer a teacher workshop highlighting these resources, and provide students with research "buddies" on Wednesday evenings.
